Cameras, phones, furniture and washing machines are some of the items that will be on display at an auctioneer’s new Nottingham showroom.

John Pye Auctions has expanded again with the opening of its sixth showroom at its Nottingham hub.

The new 6,428 sq ft display area at the national company’s headquarters in James Shipstone House, Radford Road, opens tomorrow (Thursday, January 25) and will include a variety of stock, focusing on electrical and household items, that can be viewed before they go on auction.

It will be open for public viewing on Saturdays from 9am to 11am, and will help to accommodate John Pye’s growth in visitors and stock volumes.

The number of visitors to the Nottingham hub has continued to grow year on year since it opened in 1995, and over the course of the last 12 months has welcomed more than 46,000 people to its five showrooms.

Managing director Adam Pye said: “It’s fantastic to be further investing in our Nottingham hub as we continue to see visitor numbers grow, which is a credit to our team here.

“Buying through an online auction is a smart way to shop and we are really pleased that our customer base in Nottingham is growing and subsequently we are able to further expand in the city where it all began.
